the week-long buzz around one- time cycling king lance armstrong came to a head last night in a series of rapid-fire confessions. >> yes or no, did you ever take banned substances to enhance your cycling performance? >> yes. >> yes or no, was one of those banned substances e.p.o.? >> yes. >> did you ever blood-dope or use blood transfusions to enhance your cycling performance? >> yes. >> suarez: in the interview with oprah winfrey, armstrong not only admitted to doping, but said cheating was just part of competing. >> was it humanly possible to win the tour de france without doping, seven times in a row? >> not in my opinion. i didn't invent the culture, but i didn't try to stop the culture. >> suarez: armstrong was stripped of his seven tour de france titles last year after the u.s. anti-doping agency accused him of masterminding an elaborate doping scheme. but until now, he had steadfastly and repeatedly denied the allegations. >> we have nothing to hide. we have nothing to run from. i never used drugs. >> suarez: anyone who suggested otherwise was attacked by armstrong and his allie

it's always about winning for lance armstrong. even the confessions now is about winning, because he wants to rehabilitate the image and compete once again. you can't blame him for that. but again you see it's something that is a plan that has been put together by his team. >> the fact that he was raising a lot of money for cancer and has done a lot of good things for people, was this his justification for his operation, the way his behavior and the way he was competing and cheating and lying? >> again, we have to give him credit that he wanted to help other people but in many ways that becomes a rationalization. we use that as a way to shield ourselves from the cold, hard truth that perhaps we are cold and hard by doing these things that may not be from the heart but to help us as far as the public perception. >> personally, does he need rehabilitation? >> this is a man who i truly believe needs to feel what's inside. i think he has locked out a lot of those emotions, a lot of feelings, brought in his own hype about winning. that

no, lance armstrong was an international hero. a seven time-tour de france winner, the usain bolt of his sport. not to mention a public face in the fight against cancer. yet in his confessional last night with oprah, he confessed only what was obvious to anyone who wanted to see it, that he doped throughout his cycling career. but armstrong did not admit to cheating, denied he was a doping ringleader, didn't admit to bullying, and seemed emotionally incapable of sympathy for the people whose lives he ruined and money he took when they tried to do nothing more than tell the truth about what he had done. joining me is "the daily beast's" buzz bissinger and sports editor for "the nation" dave zirin. buzz, in august of 2012, just five months ago, you wrote a cover story for "newsweek" entitled "i still believe in lance armstrong," and yet last night his interview with oprah winfrey began with a series of yes and no questions. >> did you ever take banned substances to enhance your cycling performance? >> yes. >> yes or no, was one of t
